Oklahoma and the rest of the country will see an incredible spectacle in the sky that you will not want to miss.A solar eclipse will move across the country on April 8, and Oklahoma will be a prime location to watch it. To help prepare you for the solar eclipse, we've created a map showing the path of totality. As the map shows, the path of totality clips southeastern Oklahoma. KOCO 5 Meteorologist Jonathan Conder says the best places to see the path will be in Antlers, Hugo, Idabel and Beavers Bend. The eclipse won't last that long in Oklahoma. The moon's shadow will move at 1,686 mph – which is two times the speed of sound — and the path of totality will be in Oklahoma for 4 minutes starting at 1:44 p.m. In the path of totality, the moon completely covers the sun, creating twilight during the day. Areas with a partial eclipse — Oklahoma City will have a 93% eclipse — will see part of the sun as the moon will block only some of it.More Solar Eclipse CoverageSolar eclipse in Oklahoma: What to know and where to see itSolar eclipse in Oklahoma: Where to stay to get the best view of April's solar eclipseSolar eclipse in Oklahoma: What causes eclipses and what kinds there areSolar eclipse in Oklahoma: The special glasses you'll need to view itSolar Eclipse: Don't let the clouds in Oklahoma ruin your eclipse.Solar Eclipse in Oklahoma: Where are the best places to see the path of totality?
